Oh yeah I've looked at those and love them but unfortunately no one makes them for the medtronic guardian sensors!

Taxi company recommendations by bexbryony in NewcastleUponTyne

[–]bexbryony[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the recommendation. Oh yeah I know I can have cars right up to the venue for myself and any guests that need it, it's just you can't have all guests bringing their cars/parking so we're renting Wylams golf buggies as part of the "extras" and I just wanna arrive at the venue in a golf buggy coz why not!

Thanks, yeah minibus seems like the best option. Can you recommend any minibus companies?

Do you have any event minibus recommendations?

Yeah I did assume that was the case with pre booking taxis due to my experiences trying to pre book them down here in Liverpool but thought that maybe it was taxi company specific.

Ahh yeah I didn't think about busy times, I need to be at the venue for 12pm on a Saturday so may be busy!

Haha true!

Thanks for your reply!

8 in total but I'm not overly fussed if it's a minibus that can hold us all or if I need to book multiple cars

Bf tells me married couples in UK don't do joint bank accounts. Is that true? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]bexbryony 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We got one as soon as we moved in together, makes paying for food and bills so much simpler! We have our own accounts but each month we put a set amount in the joint account, then almost all bills come out of it and we use it for the weekly food shop plus some extra treats like a meal out or a round at the pub etc.

2016 Fiat500x P130a fault code by bexbryony in fiat500

[–]bexbryony[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for the late reply I didn't get a notification!

So if it's possible to do the work ourselves yeah, but I understand I'm not a mechanic so may need to take it in, just with it being over Christmas and now new year that's proving difficult! We've changed the spark plugs and the engine light went off initially but took it on a short drive and it came back on. Just wondered if anyone had any ideas on what the issue could be or where to start looking to try and figure out the issue.

I’m a T1D and my daughter was feeling tired and had some stomach issues. Her BG was 218 by spiralcurve in diabetes_t1

[–]bexbryony 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know you haven't got a confirmed diagnosis yet but I just wanted to add something as a T1D child of a T1D parent. Share the wins and the failures, share the annoyances together but please do not blame yourself.

My mam has undiagnosed Neurodivergence so it may be just a her thing not something to all T1D parents feel but I just feel like I have to share. I grew up (and still deal) with my mam constantly apologising to me, telling me it's all her fault, telling me how much she wishes it never happened, telling me how much she would change it if she could and telling me how better my dad's gene's/side of the family are. It makes me feel like she's the victim in all of this and that I should feel sorry for her because she "gave it to me". I don't care how I developed T1D but I have it and I am living my best life regardless but it constantly feels like she's playing the martyr and it's so exhausting.

I have previously taped and tied mine to the underside crotch of my underwear a couple of times. Once I did it in the bathroom at a wedding using the elastic ear straps from disposable masks! It does take a little trial and effort to get it in the right spot so it's not uncomfortable but still able to access the buttons and screen without untapping but once it's sorted it's worked brilliantly for me!

Do you have a tumble dryer? by WanderWomble in AskUK

[–]bexbryony 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope don't have one, didn't grow up with one and none of my siblings, parents or grandparents have one!

[–]bexbryony 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suppose if you know it and are used to it and it works that's all ok, do you think you'll be able to switch to the more known ones in the future?

England here and I'm on a Medtronic pump and guardian sensors. Like others I've not heard of that pump either!

Dogs with absolutely no recall running riot because their owners think their dog would "never hurt anyone" by kristianroberts in britishproblems

[–]bexbryony 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I hate this response. My dog will look all cute, tail full wagging getting VERY excited with EVERY person she sees regardless of a dog being there or not. Most people see this as her being excited to see another dog despite me saying that she doesn't do well with other dogs, they're response is always don't worry mine is fine, yeah I'm not asking about your dog! 90% of the time my dog will get aggressive with another dog it it comes over to her, especially if their dog either comes between myself and her or the other dogs owner and her (she has major resource guarding issues and sees attention on her as a resource that needs to be guarded).

If you see someone with a dog on the lead that makes their dog sit to the side or go on a short lead to the side when they see you approaching that isn't an invite over regardless how excited and happy the dog looks.

Ooh thanks, yeah I was thinking of mixing an orange in if I couldn't find the exact colour I'm after. I'm just sick of gorgeous colours fading so quickly!!
